include '../db_connect.php';

$nid = $_POST['nid'];

$dusql="DELETE from news WHERE newsid='$nid'";

echo '<script language=javascript>top.location = "feedback.php";</script>';
}
else{
echo '<script language=javascript> alert("You are not authorized to access this page!");top.location = "main.php";</script>';
}
}

guys,

i think the second page (feedbackdelete.php) is working.
the problem is on the first page (f#@k!) its late that i noticed
that i has already deleted 100 of of 250 items on my database because its deleting
the wrong item. what i mean is,
let say i was supposed to delete item with an id of 104, id 104 will not be deleted
instead id 45 is deleted
i also tried clicking on the other delete button and its deleting the same id (45)
instead of its respective ids.

this is the script on my first page
